Sweet ... she's fixed 
Possibly an engine warning light which can be generated by a bad FTIT or RPM gage?
Remember if you see or suspect an engine anomaly, hit pilot data save, it helps with troubleshooting!

Couldn't have been anything too serious if they didn't bring in a team to change the engine...
